Description
About Last Night — “Trump wins proxy war with Hogan in Maryland primary
— boosted by Democrats,” by Zach Montellaro
In the Republican primary: Dan Cox, a state delegate “who has
full-throatedly embraced [Donald] Trump's repeated falsehoods about
fraud in the 2020 election, scored the former president a win in his
fight with [Gov. Larry] Hogan,” defeating the Hogan-endorsed Kelly
Schulz in the gubernatorial primary.
In the Democratic primary: With mail ballots yet to be counted (Maryland
state law prevents election officials from counting them until
Thursday), it’s too early to call. As of this morning, author Wes Moore
led the field, with former DNC Chair and Labor Secretary Tom Perez and
state Comptroller Peter Pranchot in striking distance.
Full results: Maryland statewide and Maryland congressional districts
The View from Aspen — The place to be this week to really understand
where the country is headed is 1,800 miles away from Washington: Aspen,
Colorado, where Biden’s top national security officials — including his
CIA director, national security adviser, and top officials from DOJ and
Treasury — are gathering with a small cohort of journalists over the
next four days for rare on-the-record sessions at the Aspen Security
Forum. The full agenda can be found here.
We asked Alex, author of POLITICO’s “National Security Daily”
newsletter, to weigh in with the three big things he’ll be watching for
this week.

But the level of engagement within Trumpworld this far out — that we didn’t necessarily expect. by POLITICO Playbook Daily Briefing
